Best Sushi and Japanese Restaurants in Las Vegas 2026
Our ranked guide to the best sushi and Japanese restaurants in Las Vegas for 2026, from Nobu and Zuma to the Strip's standout omakase counter, Ito.
Why we wrote this guide
A quick honest note before the list: there is no such thing as a pure sushi bar on the Las Vegas Strip. Even Nobu, the most famous sushi name in the world, runs black cod, Chilean seabass, and a full hot kitchen alongside the sushi counter. The best Japanese rooms here are variety rooms, sushi plus robata, tempura, and serious cooked dishes, which is exactly what makes them worth the table. This is our ranked guide to the best sushi and Japanese restaurants in Las Vegas in 2026, built from the tables we book most. If you want a true single-counter omakase, we cover that too, at the end. Last updated late June 2026.
Looking for the table, not the reading? Tell us the night and the group and we will route you to the right room.
The ranked guide
1. Nobu (Caesars Palace)
The global benchmark, and the name most people mean when they say sushi in Vegas. Nobu Matsuhisa's signature style, the black cod miso, the yellowtail jalapeno, the tiradito, alongside a full sushi program. It is a complete Japanese restaurant, not just a sushi counter, which is the point. Book Nobu when you want the room everyone knows is great. See Nobu.
Best for: the safe, world-class choice; first-timers and regulars alike.
2. Zuma (The Cosmopolitan)
Modern Japanese izakaya done at a very high level: the robata grill is the star, the sushi and sashimi are pristine, and the room has energy without tipping into a scene. Zuma is the move when you want contemporary Japanese with a buzz. See Zuma.
Best for: the lively, contemporary Japanese dinner.
3. Catch (Aria)
Seafood-forward and see-and-be-seen, with a strong sushi and roll program inside a high-energy room. Catch is the pick when the night is as much about the scene as the fish. The crowd skews younger and the room runs late. See Catch.
Best for: the scene dinner that rolls into the night.
4. Mizumi (Wynn)
Wynn's refined Japanese room, with a waterfall-and-garden setting that is one of the prettiest dining rooms in the city. Sushi, teppanyaki, and robata under the Wynn service standard. Mizumi is the special-occasion Japanese dinner. See Mizumi.
Best for: the refined, special-occasion Japanese dinner with a view.
5. Komodo (Las Vegas)
A Southeast-Asian-leaning room with a strong sushi and raw program, big energy, and a menu built for sharing. Komodo is the group pick when you want Japanese-and-beyond in a high-energy setting rather than a quiet sushi counter. See Komodo.
Best for: the group dinner with energy and a wide table.
6. Yellowtail (Bellagio)
Akira Back's Japanese room overlooking the Bellagio fountains. Modern sushi and Japanese with one of the better view tables on the Strip. Yellowtail is the fountain-view Japanese dinner. See Yellowtail.
Best for: a fountain-view Japanese dinner.
7. Tao Asian Bistro (The Venetian)
The pan-Asian institution: a wide menu spanning sushi, Chinese, and Thai inside the most famous Asian-dining-and-nightlife address in the city. Tao is the pick when the group wants variety and an easy walk into the night at the Venetian. See Tao Asian Bistro.
Best for: the variety-menu group dinner that pairs with a night out.
8. Fuhu (Resorts World)
A playful, design-forward pan-Asian room at Resorts World with a solid sushi and dim-sum-style sharing menu. Fuhu is the fun, younger-energy option on the north end of the Strip. See Fuhu.
Best for: the fun, design-forward group dinner at Resorts World.
If you want a true omakase: Ito
Everything above is a variety room. If what you actually want is a dedicated omakase counter, the chef setting the pace and serving you piece by piece, the answer on the Strip is Ito. It is the most serious omakase experience in Las Vegas, a small counter built around the chef and the day's fish, and it is the one we point sushi purists to. (We handle the reservation; the counter is small and books out.)
Best for: the sushi purist, the omakase occasion, the dinner where the counter is the whole experience.
How to choose, fast
The world-class safe choice: Nobu.
Contemporary, lively, robata-forward: Zuma.
Scene dinner into the night: Catch or Komodo.
Refined, special occasion, a view: Mizumi or Yellowtail.
A true omakase counter: Ito.
A note on what to order
Because these are variety rooms, the move at most of them is to split the table: a few signature cooked dishes (the black cod at Nobu, the robata at Zuma) plus a sushi and sashimi selection for the table. Tell your server you want a mix and let them guide the balance. If you want a pure sushi-and-sashimi meal, Ito's omakase is the cleaner fit than ordering around a variety menu.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best sushi restaurant in Las Vegas?
For a complete, world-class Japanese room, most diners point to Nobu at Caesars Palace. For a dedicated omakase counter, Ito is the most serious sushi-purist experience on the Strip. The right answer depends on whether you want a full Japanese dinner or a focused omakase.
Is there a true omakase in Las Vegas?
Yes. Ito runs the Strip's standout omakase counter, a small, chef-led, piece-by-piece experience. The rooms in the ranked guide above are excellent but are variety restaurants, not single-counter omakase.
How much does a sushi dinner in Las Vegas cost?
A full dinner with sushi, a few cooked dishes, and drinks at a top Strip Japanese room typically runs around $120 to $300 per person depending on the room and how much premium fish you order. A dedicated omakase runs higher and is priced as a set experience. We can give you a realistic per-head estimate for any specific room before you book.
Which is the best Japanese restaurant for a group?
Komodo, Tao Asian Bistro, and Catch all handle groups well with wide, shareable menus and energy. For a quieter refined group dinner, Mizumi or Yellowtail. Tell us the headcount and we will route the room that fits.
Do I need a reservation for sushi in Las Vegas?
For the rooms above, yes at prime time, especially on weekends. The omakase counter at Ito books out furthest in advance because it seats so few. Let us hold it so the night is not left to chance.
How far in advance should I book?
For a standard weekend table at the variety rooms, 2 to 3 weeks. For Ito's omakase counter or a major event weekend (F1, NYE, big conventions), 4 to 8 weeks. Weeknights are often available inside a week.
